The bird is the word, according to Yasiel Puig.
Never shy to leave his emotions on the field, Puig demolished a Trevor Bauer offering over the wall for a two-run shot in his first at-bat of the game on Tuesday.
After rounding the bases, Puig blatantly flips off what appears to be either a fan or a group of heckling spectators with both hands before making his way back to the Los Angeles Dodgers' dugout.
Upon his return, manager Dave Roberts and teammate Justin Turner quickly approached Puig to have a word with the 26-year-old. His actions didn't result in any subsequent discipline from the Dodgers, as Puig remained in the game and grounded out in his next at-bat.
